Anuki’s Diary

Dear lovers, I miss you

When your lover is distant from you, it is natural to miss him or her. Sometimes they have to leave you behind for sometime though their heart disagree or misses you so badly. But then there would have been million reasons which have come across for them to do so.

May be due to their education or work they must be living seven seas away or some other unavoidable reason. Whatever the reason may be or the distant it is missing him or her would go on... that is what love is all about.

Especially when they are not closer to you, people say that you start missing your loved one more than one could or would have imagined. At the same time working on with a distant relationship would not be easy as one would think of. It is the understanding and the love, which would help to work out a relationship.

“Best kind of love, does not have a easy road.” It is the commitment each other has that would help them to achieve their aspirations in life as one.

Let me put it this way. Whatever said and done, missing your lover can put your good mood off, might make you feel so blue, negative feelings may try to rise or one might even take this unbearable feeling by hurting someone else with sharp words. Not that you purposely wanted to do so, but then it is not right to take your pain off through another person.

Dear lovers, we all are made of flesh and blood. It is normal for your heart to feel the pain but remember the opposite of pain is delight. Love is a delightful treat so enjoy every second of it. Let your loved one know how much you miss him or her in every beautiful and possible way.

The best way to ease your pain of ‘missing your lover’ is to recall all the loving memories until you are back together. This is what I have experienced and thanks to him for teaching me the values of love.

Famous love story: Salim and Anarkali

The love story of Salim and Anarkali is a story that every lover knows. The Mughal prince Salim falling for a courtesan Anarkali is the stuff that legends are made of. The relationship of Salim and Anarkali outraged the Mughal emperor Akbar so much that both father and son decided to go on war.

The son of the great Mughal emperor Akbar, Salim, fell in love with an ordinary but beautiful courtesan Anarkali. He was mesmerised by her beauty and fell in love as soon as he saw her.

But the emperor could not digest the fact that his son was in love with an ordinary courtesan. He started pressurising Anarkali and devised all sorts of tactics to make her fall in the eyes of the young, love smitten prince.

When Salim came to know of this, he declared war against his own father. But the mighty emperor’s gigantic army was too much for the young prince to handle. He was defeated and was sentenced to death.

This is when Anarkali intervenes and renounces her love to save her beloved from the jaws of death. She is entombed alive in a brick wall right in front of her lover’s eyes.

Some people however say that she did not die. The tomb was constructed on the opening of a secret tunnel unknown to Salim. It is said she escaped through that tunnel and fled the place, never to return again. Thus, ends the tragic love story of Salim and Anarkali.

Love lines

Simple act of kindness

Just a simple act of kindness
Bring such peace to the heart
Filling it with love and affection
Which can hardly be put into words

Sitting side by side
But living in two different worlds
In the end looking at one horizon
I wonder when we will be united
As one again

Your courtesy and manners
Are impressive my dear
Even though I try not to like you
Fearing that I might fall in love with you
Some how you have captured my heart
And I have fallen in love with you....

Hope and You

People live on Hope
I live on You,
Because You are my hope.
But when you say,
“Don’t keep hopes on me”
How can I bear it up?
As I have no Hope
Without You.
